Purchasing a 2021 F150 XLT Crew Cab and I'm a little confused about the trailer tow packages.
I've gone through the pinned messages but can't seem to find the answer I'm looking for.
The window sticker mentions the class IV hitch, but does not mention a tow package.
What is included in the tow package that is not included on this truck?
My travel trailer is only 5200 lbs dry, no more than 6000 loaded.
I pulled it easily with my 2019 Ranger, but it was totaled by a tree in the driveway so I figured I'd use the chance to upgrade to something slightly larger. We don't plan on getting a trailer any larger than this so I don't really need the 10,100 that the 3.73 gears would offer.
I plan on adding a Trailer Brake Controller, either something from Ford or Redarc. My ranger had the Redarc and I quite liked it, so I'm leaning towards that.
I'm just at a loss as to what else would be included with the "Trailer Tow Package" I sometimes see listed on window stickers.
Thank you!
